Article 27A
a. On August 14, 1981, AECOM Services, Inc. formerly known as Daniel, Mann, Johnson, & Mendenhall
(DMJM), entered a plea of guilty to a single violation of 18 U.S.C. Section 1343 in the United States District
Court for the District of Massachusetts. The plea arose out of a series of political contributions which DMJM
had made in Massachusetts approximately 40 years ago (April 1969 and March 1972). It was not alleged that
the contributions were made to influence particular decisions by public officials or to obtain specific contracts.
DMJM conducted its own internal investigation of these events in 1980-81, prior to entry of the plea. DMJM
also cooperated fully with both the federal investigation and a subsequent civil investigation on the same mat-
ter conducted by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

As stated herein, while DMJM entered its plea in 1981, the questionable activity occurred almost 40 years
ago. Since that time, 100% of the ownership interest in DMJM has been transferred to other parties and
a substantial change in the Board of Directors, management and personnel has occurred. In view of the
foregoing, in December 1984, the Massachusetts Division of Capital Planning and Operations, which is the
debarment authority in Massachusetts, specifically decided that it would be inappropriate to institute debar-
ment proceedings against DMJM in light of the substantial change in management at DMJM, and other fac-
tors demonstrating the integrity of the management. Other states have reviewed the matter and have officially
reached the same conclusion.
b. A
 n officer of M&E Pacific, Inc., a subsidiary of Metcalf & Eddy, Inc. (now part of AECOM USA, Inc. by
merger), was investigated for alleged violations of the Hawaii Campaign Spending Laws. The individual was
removed as an officer of M&E Pacific and M&E. Thereafter, he agreed to plead no contest to a misdemeanor
charge. Much of this activity occurred prior to the acquisition of Metcalf & Eddy by AECOM Technology Cor-
poration, and this individuals actions were incurred without the knowledge of management of Metcalf & Eddy,
Inc., and his actions did not involve any corporate funds. There was never an investigation or any allegations
of wrongdoing against M&E Pacific and Metcalf & Eddy, Inc.

 n July 12, 2004, AECOM Canada charged (convicted on October 6, 2005 upon guilty plea) of one count of
failing to comply with safety requirements for air shipping a nuclear densometer contrary to Canadas Trans-
portation of Dangerous Goods Act.
d. O
 n March 15, 2004, two related complaints alleging non-payment of vacation pay contrary to Alberta Employ-

was ordered to pay vacation pay.
Article 27B
A subsidiary of AECOM Services, Inc. operating in Utah, voluntarily excluded itself from proposing on projects
with the Utah Department of Transportation for six months, ending October 21, 2000. This voluntary action was
taken to allow an internal billing audit (and subsequent UDOT audit) to be completed. The subsidiary had inter-
nally discovered that it had supplied overlapping billings to UDOT on a Utility and Encroachment Inspection Con-
tract. This matter was resolved by paying UDOT for the cost of the audit and giving UDOT credit for erroneously
billed amounts. The subsidiary continues to work for UDOT, providing services under this and other contracts.

Article 27G
a. The Department of Justice conducted an investigation of projects related to the District of Columbia Depart-
ment of Transportation (DCDOT). As part of that investigation, AECOM USA was served with subpoenas
and cooperated with the Government. We understand that the investigation included inquiries of other com-
panies which also contract with DCDOT. We were not advised that we were the target of the investigation,
and no charges or claims were brought against AECOM USA as part of this matter. On February 23, 2007,
Ken Keitt, a former Vice President at AECOM USA, was indicted for allegedly directly or indirectly providing
an illegal gratuity to a former DCDOT official. Senior management at AECOM USA had no knowledge of
these alleged gratuities, and the government did not charge AECOM USA. Furthermore, AECOMs Code of
Conduct forbids employees from providing cash payments to government officials. As noted, AECOM USA
cooperated with the governments investigation. Upon mutual agreement, Mr. Keitt resigned in February of
2004. Mr. Keitt vigorously contested the indictment. The matter proceeded to trial in May of 2008 and the
jury reached a verdict of not guilty and Mr. Keitt was acquitted. This matter is closed.

Harris and Consoer Townsend Environdyne Engineeers, Inc. (CTE), both known now as AECOM USA, Inc.,
